I am looking to find out help or a tutorial that will use the autocomplete function and connect to mysql. The only other post I saw was from 2012.

    Adobe removed the old fashioned server-behavior panels from DW CC.  As yet, they have not provided any replacement tools.   So you either code manually as I do with PHP and MySQLi (imporoved).

     

    See connection example:

    <?php
    $con = mysqli_connect("localhost","your_username","your_password","database_name");
    
    // Check connection
    if (mysqli_connect_errno())
      {
      echo "Failed to connect to MySQL: " . mysqli_connect_error();
    		}
    		else echo "Successfully connected, happy coding!"
    ?> 
    

     

    Or, you may purchase 3rd party extensions from WebAssist or DMX Zone.

     

    Alternatively, you may wish to use DW for site management and another product like Wappler for web app development.
